how can I let the user enter a particular string and take him to a particular site.

for example, my server is called NMS_SERVER2. And to access the home page of this server he needs to type //nms_server2 in the address bar. Now, I want to make this as NOD. That means instead of typing as //nms_server2 the user should be able to type just "nod" and the IIS should take him to the first page of that site. I have index.asp as the first page. Is it possible??

many thanks.
 
Surely the easiest way is to set up "NOD" in DNS to point to the IP address of NMS_SERVER2. If there are more than one virtual *server* (not directory!) on NMS_SERVER2 then put NOD in the HOST HEADER of the virtual server that you want the user to go to.
